Two of the better films Elvis did at this time but mainly the backdrops. The sound tracks need to be put into contextThe recording were no longer an introduction to a new phenomena, they were fillers to gap the poor storylines andgive movie audiences a break from tedious beautiful colours. A bit cruel really since the songs of this era were softerthan the rip roaring hectic Rock and Roll, he was getting older or should I say more mature and his image that theestablishment so detested in the late 50's was completely remodelled into a handsome woman magnet. Back to themusic, some really good tracks but don't expect any Don't Be Cruel or Hound Dog numbers his recording was with afar smoother timbre, there are many other successful pop stars around but few having the ability to change their voice - Listen!

These were bought to add to my collection of Elvis CDs..... Unless one is an Elvis fan this double feature is not likely to be subject to great demand. Fun in Acapulco provides a quite different musical backdrop to the norm - with a strong Mexican influence on the production which is a long way from Rock n Roll but it is generally uptempo and cheerful (e.g. no room to rhumba in a sports car) .Bossa Nova Baby - is probably the most recognised single from the Album which respectively reached #13 and #9 in the UK charts.With regards to the "World Fair" CD the most recognised song will be - one broken heart for sale - backed by - they remind me too much of you - which as a single reached # 12 in the Uk charts. Both Albums reached Gold Status ....And, at this point in his career, in early 1963, the albums contributed to RCA's announcement that Elvis had already sold over 100 million records world wide.
